oneplow tractors being used on farms in 1917 about 900 were sold in canada as compared with over- 5000 in 1918 this increase can be- attributed to the low initial cost and the fact that many of the field operations can be performed by the oneplow tractor and its equipment although the oneplow tractor costs approximately onehalf as much as the twoplow tractor and will normally accomplish at least half the amount of work the new cost per drawbar horse power is usually 25 per cent greater for the oneplow tractor tiian for large tractors it has been estimated that a oneplow tractor will plow an acre of land for about 1 while thel twoplow tractor will do an acre for about 350 this higher cost for the oneplow tractor is partly due to the increased labour cost since one man can do approximate ly half as much with a oneplow tractor as with the twoplow tractor these costs are based on operations under average field conditions the above figures that look of boredom on the face of miss silver
